DVDs & Films Forum - RE: So, who still like cartoons then? - Page 2

It's probably out of Studiocanal/Optimum's hands, as the discs are authored by Australia's Madman Entertainment.

I haven't seen the Japanese discs to compare,but what I have seen of the UK discs has been very pleasant. Certainly film grain is present, which you might expect to be completely scrubbed out by excessive DNR.

I have seen comparison shots of the Japanese and UK Laputa on a forum, and there is a difference visible on the freeze frame. Having said that, I wasn't thinking about DNR when I watched the film.

Still, discerning Ghibli-philes are importing the Japanese discs, especially as they have English language subtitle options.

Now, what I'm with isn't it, and what's 'it' seems weird and scary
